ID:PEA15_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Astrocytic phosphoprotein PEA-15; AltName: Full=15 kDa phosphoprotein enriched in astrocytes; AltName: Full=Phosphoprotein enriched in diabetes; Short=PED; FUNCTION: Blocks Ras-mediated inhibition of integrin activation and modulates the ERK MAP kinase cascade. Inhibits RPS6KA3 activities by retaining it in the cytoplasm (By similarity). Inhibits both TNFRSF6- and TNFRSF1A-mediated CASP8 activity and apoptosis. Regulates glucose transport by controlling both the content of SLC2A1 glucose transporters on the plasma membrane and the insulin-dependent trafficking of SLC2A4 from the cell interior to the surface. SUBUNIT: Binds RPS6KA3, MAPK3 and MAPK1. Transient interaction with PLD1 and PLD2 (By similarity). Interacts with CASP8 and FADD. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Note=Associated with microtubules. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitously expressed. Most abundant in tissues such as heart, brain, muscle and adipose tissue which utilize glucose as an energy source. Lower expression in glucose- producing tissues. Higher levels of expression are found in tissues from individuals with type 2 diabetes than in controls. PTM: Phosphorylated by protein kinase C and calcium-calmodulin- dependent protein kinase. These phosphorylation events are modulated by neurotransmitters or hormones. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 DED (death effector) domain.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
